System for allocating data in a communications system and method thereof
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- performing, for a first duration, a first wireless transmission of data via a first set of frequency bins of a plurality of frequency bins associated with a bandwidth of a channel, the first wireless transmission having a transmission power for at least one frequency bin of the first set of frequency bins that exceeds a predetermined nominal power spectral density;
performing, for a second duration separate from the first duration, a second wireless transmission of data via a second set of frequency bins of the plurality of frequency bins, the second set separate from the first set, the second wireless transmission having a transmission power for at least one frequency bin of the second set of frequency bins that exceeds the predetermined nominal power spectral density, wherein the second set of frequency bins is unused during the first duration and the first set of frequency bins is unused during the second duration; and
a collective power spectral density for the bandwidth averaged over the sum of the first duration and the second duration is not greater than the predetermined nominal power spectral density.

Abstract
Poor transmission reliability is identified in a data channel. Multiple frequency carriers are used to transmit different sets of data within the data channel. A frequency bin is assigned to each frequency carrier. The frequency bins are used to provide data to each frequency carrier. A transmission power assigned to each frequency carrier may be insufficient to overcome noise in the data channel when all the frequency bins are used to transfer data concurrently. The number of frequency bins associated with frequency carriers of the data channel are reduced. Power is increased to the available frequency bins to improve transmission reliability. The available frequency bins are allocated across the data channel according to a pattern used to spread allocated transmission power across the data channel. The frequency bin pattern is rotated among available frequency bins of the data channel, allowing different frequency bins to be used for each transmission. Accordingly, a power spectral density associated with the transmissions remains within a nominal power spectral density.
